Loving them from last year with their sweet debut release Kurr, they have done a version of OMD’s ‘Souvenir in December’ which you can hear over at their website.

Knitted hats-off-to-you girls… Hildur Ársælsdóttir, Edda Rún Ólafsdóttir, Maria Huld Markan Sigfúsdóttir and Sólrún Sumarliðadóttir.

Time for a delicate chill-out album from the Icelandic quartet consisting of Hildur Ársælsdóttir, Edda Rún Ólafsdóttir, Maria Huld Markan Sigfúsdóttir and Sólrún Sumarliðadóttir.

They have worked with Sigur Ros in the studio and live, so that will give you an idea of the sort of chilledness of their work.

Wiki states that “The song “Hilli” was released on December 10, 2007 as the second single from the album Kurr. It is a collaboration between Amiina and Lee Hazelwood whose vocals (the last recording before his death) are mixed with a reworked version of the original song.”
How about that…
